Toni Braxton wants you to know she’s too poor to sing.

Another celebrity is now facing the bankruptcy curse, but what makes this one extra special questionable is that it’s not the first time they’ve cried poor, or the first time that they have said mysterious health problems have prevented them from paying their bills.

Toni Braxton has filed bankruptcy for the second time according to her attorney; citing heart problems caused her have to cancel a string of Las Vegas shows, for the second time. But her attorney, Debra Grassgreen wants you to know :

Braxton has had high-profile health issues in recent years in 2008 she was forced to cancel a series of Las Vegas shows after experiencing chest pains that were later diagnosed as microvascular angina.

TMZ was first to report that Braxton and her company Liberty Entertainment filed for bankruptcy on September 30th.
